The United Kingdom and the Death of Boris Johnson as we know it.
rallyboy replied to CB Fry's topic in The Lounge
It's all the made-up spin shit that needs to stop if the Conservative party is to learn from the failure of appointing a corrupt clown and his c**t circus, and to actually start governing. Inventing a ministerial job today for the dangerously insane Peter Bone is a ridiculous way to launch a new era, it's just rewarding a Johnson nutter with a huge future payoff for spouting lies. This suggests nothing has changed, no lessons have been learned, and the Eton gravy train is just merrily plodding on taking the piss out of us, and the system. Will the new PM be just another toxic jockey for a lame old horse, or will there be some new blood and a fresh direction? At the moment we've stopped a drink driver who has recorded three times over the limit, given him his keys back and asked him to drive carefully - Johnson has to go, he's not moved a fucking inch, and he won't. Change needs to come, for everyone. -

The main positive with mass resignations is that a generation of unemployable yet over-promoted yes-men and women are leaving the building to never be seen again - presumably all thinking that this will just be a cool and temporary moral stand because they're so good the new leader will be desperate to reappoint them...but those phones will never ring. The silence of the sheep. -

The rest of the cabinet do realise that this isn't the end of it and they will still forever be the worst cabinet in history? They have sat around that table and encouraged the corrupt crook to randomly ejaculate and throw his shit everywhere for the last few years, so they will always be covered in it. As for Zahawi - he's a fucking piece of work, this will be about three U-turns in 72 hours. I can't wait to hear his simple explanation of what changed during his tea break. -

The warm-horsed slippery question-dodger Zahawi is parroting the newest PR script. Delivering, global Britain, first tax cut in ten years, delivering, at war, unprecedented, delivering, global Britain, taxcut, delivering.... It's more hollow spin - they think ALL of us are stupid. A good start would be taxing energy companies' enormous profits that have in some cases tripled in the last few months. Perhaps we could then look at that poor little charity Eton College and its tax-free £650m? -

Is Raab really thick and out of his depth or is he just limited by a very poor defence script? Either way he's having a shocker today. -
Badminton and tennis ultras are incredibly annoying, they make a hell of a racket.

Johnson Hill is no place to make a last stand, you might valiantly fight off five or six scandals but you'll inevitably die there and be buried alongside your street cred. -

Dorries is a great example for anyone who still believes that the UK media is balanced. Had Diane Abbott made anywhere near the number of mistakes that Dorries has, she'd be on the front page every day. Ditto the current news blackout on sex in the foreign office. Had Corbyn or Starmer been caught cheating on a partner who was being treated for cancer, by having sex in the office and trying to get the fancy bit in question a £100k a year job on the back of it, do you think perhaps the papers might give it more than the current coverage of Johnson's corrupt car crash of a lifestyle? Wake up readers of The Sun, Mail, Express etc, you're just buying a press release. -
My final memory of Long was in the last minute of the vital win against Arsenal - he gave everything and chased down their keeper to block a clearance which would have seen the ball in our half in injury time. At a time of the season when Broja and several others had downed tools, Shane showed that even if you are short of world-class talent, giving 100% makes a difference. He ran, he chased, he hassled, he fell over, and occasionally he scored - cheers Shane, all the best.

As long as his deputy chief whip doesn't join the government's ever growing sexual predator team and has to resign, Boris will be fine. Even when the other parties try to do scandal they just can't compete. Chuck in the PM's fancy bit and their antics in his office and it's like 1970s Soho - Confessions of an Eton Twat. We can't carry on like this, it's ridiculous. -

Indeed, as he tried to suggest in the commons, the opposition would have supported Russia... About the same time that he said he was the first one to support Ukraine, when he wasn't. Do we really believe that the UK could only support this cause with him at the helm? I think any British PM would have done this, and probably more. Boris the plucky war leader is just another cartoon PR soundbite - filed along with big decisions right, leading the world, bonfire of red tape, arms around business, rolled-out the vaccine, unprecedented, global Britain etc, yawn, etc. -
When did it become acceptable for big companies to keep you on hold for over an hour? Imagine going to a shop and being told to stand outside until they decide you can come in? And the music, it sounded like Sooty on acid playing some sort of experimental jazz funk on his organ, looped over a hundred times.

Why the fuck do the greedy, woke, NHS, leftie, vaccine-delivering traitors want decent wages? The whole cabinet clapped them on the doorstep once a week for a bit, wasn't that enough? -
Are Saints funds being used to fund a Turkish Div 2 club?

Yeah, and the overwhelming majority are not, as I said. -

I've never been convinced by the idea of buying players from clubs that have just proved that they weren't good enough - for every jewel there must be 50 Championship players who will get relegated again. Searching through bins for a tasty snack is a slightly flawed approach. -

Lazy woke leftie snowflake pinko lawyers promoting the so-called law and wanting to be paid - if they had their way all foreign-looking criminals would be pardoned and given the houses of our evicted war heroes! 😡 I think we've heard enough from these experts, the militant traitors need putting in their place, we have a perfectly good system where Braverman is clearly in control and hasn't been overpromoted as a yes-woman, she advises the government really accurately, and definitely shouldn't be restricted to assisting a proper solicitor by passing them the office stapler when they ask her. -

Mmmmm, there's not much floating going on there... Anyway, Boris has gone to the Ukraine again, and I didn't even realise there was another impending no.10 crisis to be distracted from. My money's on Truss going nuts and biting someone in a pub. -
He could have been a Saints legend, but chose to go and win things at a bigger club instead. While I admire his talents and his ambition, and thank him for what he did for us, that career move was fucking dreadful and should haunt him forever.

I refer you to the earlier depressing point about the media. If you can make up stuff that is never properly challenged or corrected, that is sufficient to fool enough voters to win elections. The current policy is to boldly announce that we lead the world in everything - say it enough times and it becomes true, anyone who denies it is talking Britain down and will be branded by the Sun, the Mail and the Express as a UK-hating terrorist-sympathiser or a traitor. Fact-free area, job done - no policy ideas required, welcome to Politics 2022. -

Forget policy, forget plans for the economy, schools, police, NHS - the only thing you need to do is get in bed with the media giants who control the message to the voters who can't be arsed to get informed. Just convince the The 4th Viscount Rothermere and Murdoch etc that your government will serve their aims, as every PM has since the 90s, and the election is all but delivered to you on a plate. Sad but true. -

I'm sure if you paddled around Kent in a dinghy they'd find you a flight, though you might need to black-up to tick all Home Office boxes. -
I love the TT, but in the background, this year has been horrendous, and you do look at it and wonder how bad it has to get before changes are discussed. The speeds are insane - but it's such a unique event that the course can't alter so the only thing you could do then is control the machinery, but you could send people out on mopeds and they'd still push beyond the limit. As it says on the signs, motorsport is dangerous - sadly, I'm not sure there's an answer to this one, you just hope it's an unlucky year.

Kevin Friend playing for Liverpool is one of the worst performances I've witnessed - and it altered the table at the end of the season.
